      Moreover, by their own stories not only did God intentionally make that person trans but God likely deliberately did so to test the people interacting with said trans person on if they could love the trans person as required by their faith.

      But no. It’s never that because the religious argument is just a post hoc justification for the hate.

        They’re not real mistakes. The end justifies the means and they think their god is only smart enough to go with this, basically.

          The ends justify the means?

          Hypotheticaly then: if I had a 100% guarantee that murdering all babies would get them into heaven, but you’d go to hell, is it morally right to murder all babies? The ends justify the means, do they not? We need to get babies to heaven! So murder them all!

          No, it’s absolutely still monstrous. Because utilitarianism is stupid.

              If you do it it’s not ok and you should feel guilty all of your life. But if we did it it’s totally ok.

              Actually you should still feel guilty all of your life because one of your ancestors sinned or something. And I’ve made you a sinner by definition.

              – God, priests and other representatives of God, probably.
